How does this rum taste?
RumX members love this Savanna’s deep complexity: concentrated dried fruits with peach and cherry, layered with leather, vanilla and polished wood, lifted by menthol freshness. Despite 61.3% cask strength, reviewers praise the integration and long, woody finish, though some note light astringent tannins and a TDL influence over classic Savanna. Best savored neat after resting. With 36 reviews and rising community confidence, this limited 240-bottle release stands out.

The nose immediately reveals strong fruit molasses notes. I would guess a Grand Arome here, with a very small Herr influence. Creamy, pronounced but deliciously integrated alcohol, full-bodied and round. Really delicious, for the price I'll have to think about buying a bottle.
Wow. Eine unfassbar einladende komplexe schwere Nase: Reifer Pfirsich, saftige Kirschen, Minze und Leder, etwas Lack und Gummireifen. Am Gaumen dann intensiv nach kräftigem english breakfast Pfirsich Eistee, Herzkirschen, Eukalyptus und Minze, karamellisierter Aprikose, dunkler Schokolade mit Meersalz, intensive aber nicht zu aufdringliche Tannine und ein schier endloser Abgang und eine leicht dreckiges Profil was dezent an Caroni erinnert. Vielleicht war das Finish ja nicht "nur" ein TDL sondern ein caroni? Wer weiß. Lecker Stoff auf alle Fälle! Edit: schon deutlich holziger und bitterer mittlerweile nochmal nüchtern verkostet, daher leichte Anpassung nach unten.
a Savanna traditionnel, 16 years tropical, 5.5 years continental, 4 months TDL 2008 finish...that's a statement! The nose has a typical Savanna profile with bourbon vanilla, overripe tropical fruits, pickled compote, caramel, polish. The TDL finish fits well here, as we're not looking at early 2000s menthol bombs here, but rather yellow fruits (although some freshness does come through). Mocha and leather on the palate, but also brutal tannins, which particularly characterize the finish. An interesting experiment, perhaps a few years less in the barrel would have been enough.
#5615 31.08.2025 Tasted at the German Rum Fest 2025. This one is an amazing Savanna and I bought a bottle right away. The profile is slightly different from what you normally get, but still up to par and a great rum. Nice balance and very good ABV integration. The wood is well balanced and there are not too many tannins interfering with the leather, light peaches and some dried fruit. There is a light polish note in there as well some caramel, mint and light citrus. Very nice and something Savanna lovers should try.
